Micco Aircraft has delivered the first SP-26 light aircraft three months after the Fort Pierce, Florida-based company clinched US certification for its two-seater model. The SP-26, an uprated version of the SP-20 two-seater certificated last January, is powered by a 195kW (260hp) Textron Lycoming IO-540. It is priced at $225,000 in standard instrument flight rules (IFR) configuration, while the visual flight rules version costs $199,500. To date Micco has chalked up 24 orders, all for the IFR model. The SP-20 and -26 are based on the vintage Meyers 145 light aircraft.
